WASHINGTON, Nov 6, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Donald Trump won the first of the swing states Tuesday as he pulled ahead of White House rival Kamala Harris, narrowing her path to victory in an agonizingly tight and suspenseful US presidential election. Democratic vice president Harris appeared to be underperforming in other key areas compared to the Republican former president. Harris's camp said the race was now "razor-thin" and that her "clearest path" to victory was through the so-called Blue Wall swing states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Trump's early wins included the predictably Republican Florida and Texas while Harris won California, giving Trump 227 electoral votes and Harris 172. Results from the other closely-fought main swing states were all still pending, but Trump was maintaining a lead in Georgia.
